“Everything you mentioned is today - tomorrow England’s military is going to be a lot smaller - maybe even the new carriers. England might even sell them to raise some cash.”
You’re way behind the times my friend. Both carriers are going into service now the F35B has been decided on. We’ve got three Type 45’s at sea with another three being finished as we speak, the first Astute class missile sub is in service with another six being built. The fact that we still have and will continue to have the fifth most powerful armed forces in the world despite being a fifth of the size of the US and just being in recovery from 13 years of Obama style socialism is quite an achievement. It will be interesting to see what’s left of the US forces if the Dims stay in power for 13 years (God forbid). . . . . .
As for raising some cash, as our credit rating hasn’t been downgraded like yours, you might be first with the garage sale.

OK, what ever you say.
How many RN ships were involved in the Falklands campaign and how many do you have now?
